Ebert has been destined for the PS from the day we drafted him. No surprise there

Somebody help me out ..... what am I overlooking? What do those cuts have to do with Ebert?

 

[JackBauer]

Goodbye, Dan. Thanks for the memories.

Hoyer being cut doesn't really concern me much. If both our backups suck, might as well keep the one with some upside.

Don't think they were related, think he was just saying it's not looking good for him independent of the others.

What the ..... okay, definately didnt see this coming.

I thought Mallet looked like an NFL QB this preseason so I think it's a good decision. Plus, in Bill I trust.

Re: Patriots released QB Brian Hoyer.

I think that says a lot about how Mallett is picking things up.
